Another new guy on the block!

Hello all! I just wanted to take a minute to introduce myself. I'm fairly new to the forum, in fact fairly new to the Corvette Community in general. A bit about myself: my name is Steve, as my profile says, I am from La Crosse Wisconsin, and am a true corvette nut. . .I love 'em, every one of them! Last spring, i finally got the opportunity to buy one, a 1979 L-82 with 26k, nothing spectacular compared to some of your cars, but I still love it. I look forward to talking to you guys (and gals)and learning a lot about my car. . . seems like there are a lot of people on the forum that know a lot about Corvettes. Anyway, just wanted to say "hi!"

Corvette forum is a great place to learn, debate, and enjoy your Corvette regardless of what year you drive. Awesome looking 79. Great to have you… Welcome!

Don’t forget to wave.

Thanks to all for such a warm welcome. As for the "save the wave" I think that is a great article. I learned the importance of the wave during my first corvette ride when I was about 11 years old, my brother in law took me for a ride in his 78 silver anniversary, he said ya always had to alert your passenger by saying "corvette alert" before passing another Corvette, then of course wave as we passed. I never realized it was such an important aspect of Corvette ownership until owning my own Corvette.
